1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Technological advances in medicine now enable wireless antibradycardia myocardial stimulation. Leadless pacemakers (LP) have already been introduced by Abbott (Abbott Park, IL, USA; Nanostim™, Aveir™), Medtronic (Minneapolis, MN, USA; Micra AV/VR™), and most recently by Boston Scientific (Marlborough, MA, USA; EMPOWER™). Although case reports have been published using different LP in combination with the EMBLEM™ S‑ICD, only the EMPOWER™ LP provides the technological prerequisites for modular cardiac rhythm management (mCRM). In this modular system, an ATP command can be transmitted from the S‑ICD to the LP when required, potentially reducing the number of S‑ICD shocks. Additionally, long-term antibradycardia pacing can be reliably ensured. Following extensive preclinical studies, the 6‑month results of the first prospective multicenter study (MODULAR-ATP) are now available, analyzing the safety, performance, and necessity of the mCRM system.
